Yet, a well-kept Museum could attract many enthusiasts from all over the world, becoming a real attraction, as perfectly demonstrated by the Ducati Museum that, after the break dictated by the health emergency, has recently reopened its doors.
This brings us back to the usual speeches: why are we not able to preserve and enhance what past generations have left us, why can’t we manage what is a real legacy of immense value? Yet it would only be enough to manage the past well to guarantee us a peaceful future.
